Three patients with acute myelogenous leukemia underwent abdominal computed tomographic (CT) examination for recent deterioration in clinical status. The diagnosis of hepatic and splenic microabscesses was correctly suggested in each patient on the basis of this study. In addition, CT accurately assessed the efficacy of antifungal therapy on follow-up studies. In this limited series of patients, CT was superior to clinical and laboratory evaluation in predicting the degree of parenchymal infection in the liver and spleen during treatment, confirmed by histologic specimens.
三名急性髓系白血病患者因近期临床状况恶化接受了腹部计算机断层扫描（CT）检查。基于这项研究，在每位患者中均正确提示了肝脾微脓肿的诊断。此外，CT在随访研究中准确评估了抗真菌治疗的疗效。在这一有限的患者系列中，在预测治疗期间肝脏和脾脏实质感染程度方面，CT优于临床和实验室评估，这一点得到了组织学标本的证实。
